Hum

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Page_history&diff=4805756&oldid=4516125
does not prove I agreed with it.

Actually, my previous edit was this : 
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3APage_history&diff=4516125&oldid=4515080

It may be that we later had a mail on the topic, I have no memory of 
this and looking in my mail box for mails a year old is basically ... 
well. I won't even try :-)

In a private mail, you mention a juriwiki mail where the topic is 
mentionned, yes, you forwarded a mail on the topic. I did not put any 
comment about it. Nor of agreement, nor disagreement. I find new 
interest at it now.

Now, I really think the current disclaimer is confusing.

Actually, last july version of the template was : 
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:History_copyright&oldid=6207979

It has changed a lot since then.

May I suggest we make it shorter and link it to 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Page_history

?
